Grace report: Whistleblower says Farrelly Commission was 'a complete waste of time'

The commission was established in 2017 to investigate the care and protection of 'Grace' and others in a former foster home in the south-east, which had been the subject of abuse allegations.

A whistleblower in the ‘Grace’ case said he told Simon Harris to shut down the Farrelly Commission in 2019, over concern it was a “complete waste of time”.

The commission published its 2,000-page report into the case on Tuesday following eight years of inquiry.
